Retired Army vet Jacob Alba moved to Moonlit Pines a little less than a year ago. The clean mountain air has done him a world of good after everything he’s been through. New to town, he’s about to spend his first Christmas in the mountain town alone. Or is he? The only woman he wants is the one he shouldn’t touch. Eden Woodman is his best friend’s little sister and completely off-limits. Twelve years younger, Jacob should know better and keep his hands to himself, but it’s near impossible when she’s so tempting and all he wants to do is take care of her. Eden brings out a side of him he didn’t know existed. One that wants to protect, cherish and spoil her rotten. He wants to be her daddy. Jacob will do anything to be the man she deserves, even if it means putting his friendship in jeopardy.
